Drivetrain wise I haven’t had any big issues. The only real issue I ever had was a battery draining issue that ended up being the seat control modules. Most of the E55s have had suspension failure by now and have Arnott brand air suspension (lifetime warranty) or Coilovers installed already. Definitely do research before you buy, but it’s no worse than anything else I’ve owned. -Sean
In Germany the GTI drivers have the cliche of being the though chav from the neighbourhood. Vaping, wearing golden chains and driving with fog lights on 24/7. Usually the cliche turns out to be true tho.
@@djyems1021Once you own one you won't mind if the values start to rise... Anyone who wants an E55 had better buy one soon because I think the prices are only going to go up from here.
Love the e55… have one of my own. Why go for that style air filter versus the factory style cold air? Got an aluminum piping kit from vrp makes more sense to me?
I have an Audi A3 that I have just done wheels and lowered suspension as my "exterior mods" for now, with future plans being performance only. I think the OEM+ look of the GTI is tasteful and exactly how I'd imagine doing it if I owned one.
I just sold my 2008 E320. That bitch would fly! I had BC Racing Coilovers, exhaust/egr delete, tuned by rocket chip tuning, nitto g2 tires, upgraded Garrett turbo, upgraded intercooler, all new gaskets up top... it was a beast. But some of the issues like the computer bs was ultimately why I got rid of it. Too many little things to break and go wrong. Not to mention the last thing I fixed which was $500 for a steering angle sensor!!!! Wtf!!!
TF? That E55 with the intake at the BACK at the engine bay?? Peak Benz engineering.. didn't even know anyone made an intake at the back of the engine bay.

I FINALLY get to see the E55, today's a good day. Saving up for this beast
Same man, i want an E55 pretty bad lol
I heard they aren’t that reliable?
@@minhajuddin1769 Lexus is a thing
I swear it seems like last week they were 10k and now they’re 20k 🙄

Similar vibes here in the UK. Mainly Fiesta ST's that have that sort of energy. Shame how a cars market can essentially ruin a car
Same here in Ireland along with the IS200
Subies here in the US lol
@@baker6928 and Corsa Vxrs
@@NazimUddin-yk2tz I had one of those, can confirm 🤣
Glad to see the E55 getting some love. I've been daily driving one since 2017. Wouldn't trade it for the world. Best car ever
I agree, never going back
I think Steve's throwing hints he wants to be involved lol
W211s with V8s are just awesome
bought a C55 AMG (legit just a reliable, NA E55) literally 2 hours ago... good to see the merc sedans getting recognition regardless!
I’ve never driven one but I heard they’re awesome! Wild to think they tossed a V8 in the C class before the 63 was a thing.
-Sean
@@FitmentIndustries i love it! the split personality is wild! it can be all business or all hoon and i love it!
E55 is the best kept secret let’s try to keep it that way 😜
But it’s so hard to not talk about!
-Sean
KEEP IT A SECRET. STOP TELLING PEOPLE. DONT LET IT END UP LIKE THE E39 M5 I BEG YOU.
@@FitmentIndustries yeah bro low low chill 💯 vettes already went up cause of this 😂

Both of them: “it’s a cool car”
Both of their subconscious mind: “I love this car 👉🏽👈🏽”

I’m glad you guys are finally actually reviving the exhausts

I just came from the window cleaning video to this right as it was uploaded lol
e55 w211 should get more love. aside from the dumb SBC brake system, its amazing and deserves to go up in value .
I have an Audi A3 that I have just done wheels and lowered suspension as my "exterior mods" for now, with future plans being performance only. I think the OEM+ look of the GTI is tasteful and exactly how I'd imagine doing it if I owned one.
Where did he get the back window shades for his E55?
That's funny. I have a dead moth in my E55s taillamp that I cant get out😅

The brakes are absolutely connected to the master cylinder. You don't know how that system works at all.
Seems like you actually don't know bud. It's called the SBC system. Look it up.
